Regional District of Nanaimo and B.C. Transit seek public feedback on a review of bus fares.
Respondents are being sought for an online survey, which includes three fare structure-related options and questions intended to assist in refining a new fare scale, said a joint press release.
The first option would see no changes to adult ticket and cash fares, but all monthly and day pass fares would see minor decreases. The price of a monthly pass for university students would rise, but the cost of a semester pass would decrease.
The second option would see cash fares increasing to $3. It seeks to increase transit user contributions by raising all fares, but offering a minor decrease to senior/youth monthly and day passes.
The final option would see all fare types increasing with the exception of adult day passes.
The survey can be completed online at www.bctransit.com/nanaimo/survey.
The deadline to complete the survey is Feb. 24.
